Works well. You have to make sure that the phone app is already running and visible on the phone screen (not in just running in background) while you open the app on the computer or it will say it's an error, connection reset or lost. Once that is done the connection is very good, I've tried the usb and Wi-Fi connections. They had good video and audio. In the settings on my computer software I can choose which cell camera to use and computer or cell audio, so lots of options.

Works very well. Have used it for many Zoom and Skype meetings and it is reliable. Never lost connection yet. You do have to manually open app on both phone and PC to use but it is not difficult. I had to Google how to set my phone for 'debugging' in order to connect it via USB. It also allows you to choose portrait or landscape and also let's you choose front or back camera. Almost gave it a 5.

Cannot rotate the camera, so I have to awkwardly hold my phone it in the air. Otherwise, I would be sideways. So I am using the computer one handed. The option to switch from front and back cameras is so cumbersome, because you have to turn the camera off, hit the menu, hit settings, scroll down, select camera, select front/back, go back and turn it on. Extremely time consuming if you are teaching and using it as a document camera back and forth quickly.

I needed a new camera for working from home during the pandemic and I found there was a webcam shortage. Then I found DroidCam. It worked exactly as advertised for me. It was more trouble to clear a spot on my desk and set up a phone mount than it was to get the app working. My only warning is that it can drain your battery quickly, so I recommend plugging it in while in use. I upgraded to the pro version for the additional features, and as a thanks to the devs.

This is fantastic, it does exactly as it describes with little to no problems. Personally I'm a huge fan of how they do their "pro" app and how they do their ads. I don't need all the features of of the "pro" mode, so its nice being able to just use the free version to get video from your phone to your pc. And then I often use the hd video feature on my pc, and I absolutely have no issue trading 30 seconds of my time to watch an ad in return for receiving the hd video service. No complaints.

You would think using Windows 10 and Samsung GS 7 phone it wouldn't be such torture trying to get the phone to connect via USB. I've been working on this for an hour, restarting the computer, turning things on and off on the phone, and trying all the suggestions on the Help page. So far it's still not working. Not that there seems to be any better alternative.
